Come Clean

Rate this book
He’s been dead for five years, but now he wants his life back. It’s time for him to come clean.

Wyatt-

I died five years ago and I’ve spent every moment since imagining what I could have done differently. How I could have handled things in a way that let me keep her. I can’t hide any longer. She needs me and I won’t walk away this time. She’s still mine, and I refuse to keep fighting it. I need to show her that even though I’m dead, no one will ever love her like I do.

Nicole-

My entire world shattered five years ago when a single rainstorm took everything from me. I’ve spent so long barely surviving and just as I’m ready to give up, everything changes. When he's suddenly back, it's like waking up from the worst nightmare and I'm finally able to dream again. But when his past comes for him, he could be taken from me for good. And if he is, how will I survive mourning him a second time?

My name is Jenni and I love to write! For as long as I can remember, I have loved creating my own little world and telling stories. I always find myself growing attached to these fictional characters to the point that they feel like my family.
I’ve been married to my amazing husband for over eight years and we have two gorgeous daughters and one incredibly handsome, rambunctious little boy. I grew up with five brothers and a sister, so quiet has never been anything I’m used to. Though, I really wouldn’t have it any other way.
At the end of a long day, there’s nothing I prefer more than spending time with my family, then ending the evening with a good glass of wine and an even better book.

It took me forever to finish this one because I kept getting sidetracked by other books. But I fucking loved this one. It was one hell of a story, and I can't wait to read the next book after the way this one ended.

Nicole and Wyatt had a relationship 5 years earlier. Due to circumstances that happened and he had to keep Nicole out of harms way, safe from people that wanted him dead, Wyatt had to leave her behind, letting her think he was dead to protect her.
How do things turn out for the two of them and will it work out? A great read!!

2nd chance

Being forced to fake your death to save the life of the people you love was super hard. To decide to rescue that person after 5 years cause you couldn't live without them any longer, priceless. Loved this story.

"You will never lose me again. I promise, angel. I will never leave you again."

I am absolutely LOVING the DMS world that J.J. Grice has given us and Come Clean is no exception. This entire series is flowing so well and we finally get Wyatt's story! Up until this point only the basics have been known and now we get his story.....and what a story it was!

Presumed dead for the last five years Wyatt is in fact alive and as well as well can be. He has missed the love of his life, Nicole...his angel, every single day for the last five years and now her life is in jeopardy so he goes back to Seattle to get her. He knows he has so much apologizing to do and so much to make up for in order for them to start working on a new life together.....that is if she will still have him.

Nicole has hit rock bottom. Nothing has mattered to her since the night she learned of Wyatt's passing. She has nothing left and is ready to leave Seattle. On her last night in the town the one person she never thought she would see again is right in front of her.

I loved this story from the first page to the very last page. The bromance between Wyatt and Alec. These men are brothers in every single way except blood, although I wouldn't doubt if in their younger years they became "blood brothers". The banter between them....amazing, then there are the more serious encounters between the two of them and we see how much they really mean to each other. I honestly liked how Ms. Grice weaved Wyatt and Nicole's reunion. These two are definitely meant for each other, there is nobody else for either of them. They are so beautiful together.

Not only was Wyatt and Nicole's story all consuming J.J. Grice gave her readers a very nice glimpse into who the next book will be about and I am so excited for this!!!

This book will keep you on the edge of your seat throughout the whole thing. Imagine being with someone and so happy, just to have them taken away from you for 5 years. But why, you will have to read to find out. That is how it was for Nicole and Wyatt. Their chemistry is so dynamic right from the start, and they get along so well. It’s a painful five years for both of them. Nicole never does move on, and Wyatt stays in hiding. Once Wyatt comes out of hiding and he sees Nicole again, he knows he still has to keep his loved ones safe from any danger. Nicole is shocked and stunned and definitely has so many questions. It’s a race against time to take down that person and live a normal life without hiding. Can Nicole and Wyatt get back what they once had? Can Nicole trust that Wyatt won’t disappear again? There are so many twists, turns, and oh my goodness what did I just read moments you won’t want to put this book down.

Wyatt has been “dead” for the past 5 years but it’s time for him to come and get his woman cause he can’t live without her anymore.

Nicole has been mourning ever since she found out Wyatt died and never fully recovered and is in complete shock when suddenly seeing him.

Their love is so amazing and reading about their love and the reconnection they make after being apart for so long was heartwarming. Of course there’s lots of spice and some angst too but this book was fantastic! Love JJ’s writing style.

I loved this instalment in the series and have been looking forward to Wyatt’s POV since I read book 1. It pulls readers into a false sense of security but then you realise that nothing bad has happened yet which means something will inevitably go wrong.
I loved the friendship forming between Nicole and Lillie through mutual understanding of what they went through when Wyatt ‘died’. I panicked when Jax got attacked again but hopefully he’ll be ok and I can’t wait for the next book to find out.
The stories of the men in Dark Matter security are addictive and I need more!!!!

I recieved this ARC in exchange for my honest review.

This book. This book right here is it. I didn't think J.Js writing could get any better but she amazes me with every new book she puts out. I honestly think this one is my favorite from the dark matter series. 😍

Amazing, heartbreaking, happy tears, sad tears, happy tears again...just all the tears and all the feels.

Suspenseful, full of drama, full of heat 🥵 read it. You won't be disappointed!

After being presumed dead Wyatt for five years intends to get back to Nicole. Nicole has not been the same since Wyatt “died”. Now he is but not without complications from his past life. This a second chance romance but can they have their HEA with things from his past looming. Really good.

I received this copy and my spoiler free review is voluntary

JJ Grice did a wonderful job on Wyatt and Nicole's story. I felt the happiness and the sadness of the characters. Each of the Dark Matter Security team brings their own kind of danger and love.
